. @TheBuffaloNews Editorial Board gets it right: @ClaudiaTenney 's offensive tweet mocking the attack on Paul Pelosi "reveals a broken moral compass" and "falls short [of] human decency." In 5 days, we can turn #NY24 Blue by voting decency and integrity!

The Editorial Board: Claudia Tenney’s retweet of a vile post reveals a broken moral compass

The official qualifications for public office do not include simple human decency, but that surely should be high on the list of attributes that Americans demand of their public officials.
